*Extracting scattering and resonance properties from the lattice*

As JLab completes its 12 GeV upgrade, the coming years are expected to 
bring major developments in our understanding of the strong force. To 
get the most out of upcoming experiments, it is crucial to have solid 
theory predictions, based in the underlying theory of QCD. Here the well 
established methods of Lattice QCD should play a key role. However, 
numerical Lattice QCD calculations are necessarily performed in a finite 
volume and with Euclidean time and for scattering and transition 
amplitudes these constraints have important consequences. It is not 
possible to directly access the desired observables from the numerically 
determined correlators. Nonetheless, great progress has been made by 
using finite volume as a tool rather than an artifact, and deriving 
non-perturbative relations between the finite- and infinite-volume 
theories. I will review recent developments in this work with particular 
focus on three-hadron final states.
